Big Hops is a cool game about eating your own poo over and over until you die

Big Hops is very cute. The levels are... well, way too big, but I love the movement.

fwiw I asked multiple Rare- and Magazine System-adjacent folk about this a few years ago, and was told (paraphrasing):

"possibly? idk I don't remember"

"that sounds like the sort of thing we would have told a magazine for no reason"

"we published bullshit all the time"
According to the official British Nintendo Magazine System magazine, Panel de Pon was originally planned to be localized with Killer Instinct characters before being changed to the Yoshi-themed Tetris Attack.

imagine liking music and still using spotify. worm behaviour
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

I maintain that celebrating a 35th anniversary is stupid.

Here's how I feel about LEGO: you should be building a thing - an object, structure, vehicle, device - but any characters or animals etc should just be minifigs and the like.

2026 up until today doesn't count. Your New Year's resolutions, goals, ambitions etc all start from today. Go get 'em

I responded to this survey, but also, hey @discord.com, it’s not our job to fight these battles for you. Everyone working at Discord needs to be loud and vocal about rejecting AI to management. We don’t want AI, you don’t want AI - tell your bosses to do one!!
